The article critiques the recent decision to remove the MTA from the Penn Station renovation plans, suggesting it halts projects aligned with political interests that provide minimal value. It argues that previous renovations have adequately served commuters, and additional spending would mainly benefit connected individuals and politicians seeking to leverage funds. The emphasis is on protecting taxpayers from what is deemed another wasteful New York project, with acknowledgement that the current station is satisfactory for the daily user base.
"The best thing about the Trump administration kicking the MTA out of any Penn Station redo is that it puts a stake through the heart of the Cuomo-Hochul plans."
"The only reason to do anything at Penn now is to provide cash baths for the connected and a pretext for politicians to fund-raise from monied interests."
